Conseil Consultatif Des Droits De L'Homme
The National Human Rights Council () is a national institution for the protection and promotion of human rights in Morocco. It was established in 1990 as an Advisory Council on Human Rights. Its founding law was amended in 2001 to be in conformity with the Paris Principles, and again in 2011, giving the institution more powers, more autonomy and broad prerogatives to protect and promote human rights in Morocco and also to promote the principles and values of democracy. A new founding law passed in 2018, giving the institution even more powers and a broader mandate (Law #15.76). The council was thus designated as a national preventive mechanism against torture, as a national disability rights mechanism and a national child redress mechanism. During its first general assembly in September 2019, the Council unveiled a new Triple P strategy (for the prevention of violations, Protection of human rights, and Promotion of the culture of human rights).

Organizations Established In 1990
An organization or organisation (Commonwealth English; see spelling differences) is an entity—such as a company, or corporation or an institution (formal organization), or an association—comprising one or more people and having a particular purpose. Organizations may also operate secretly or illegally in the case of secret societies, criminal organizations, and resistance movements.
